I'm selling a Turbine Core2. Brand new never ridden on, just fired up to hear.....too loud for me.
Small dent on very end from me pushing it on with a "T-handle" allen wrench still in my hand....I'm such a retard! $100 + freight. I paid $150+ freight!
Lemme know.

I might be interested, I need a silencer, and a sparky might be good for certain rides...

ive tried most silencers- fmf, PC, stock, GSS. the quietest one by far is the stocker. its huge and probly chokes the engine but its quiet and sounds cool i think

DG, lemme know if you want my Turbine Core 2 before I e-bay it.
Ok AB, so the "Q" is SLIGHTLY better than a a TC2...but it's better. Still seems I get more "noise" from the front of the ex.chamber than the tail pipe.
Now looking for a stock system complete.
Lemme know,
Skiddy

A lot of the noise is from the expansion chamber, thats why the KDX200s have a dual wall baffle jobbie

First of all, Britincali..........I friggin LOVE your avitar !!! Stinky finger!
Second......OK AB....I'll bite......has anyone EVER used that snorkle thingy? Anyone? Bueller, Bueller, Bueller......Bueller...
I'm 90% sure most the noise is from the shiny large intestine anyway.

Stock pipe with a Turbine Core II...
BUT, all the connections are well supported, and siliconed.
The CR500 motor itself is pretty "mechanically" noisy too. Can sound like anything from a diesel, to a cement mixer...
The enduro guys swear by the snorkle... more down low, quiet, to loss up top.

BRAAAAAP!
